Some users were shocked and frustrated, saying things like, “Oh god who did this 😞,” and “We don’t want to see her.””Unfortunately,” one said bluntly, while another added, “I’m shocked.”

The singer’s fan base continues to support her strongly in spite of the criticism. As one Instagram fan wrote, “I’m sooooo excited 😭,” another added, “WE ARE SO READYYYY FOR IT 😍😍😍.” Other users expressed their excitement for her appearance.
